The album is a testament to how our life's story is never fully told, with opportunities for change and growth found in every moment, from the depths of despair to the euphoria of our greatest loves. Whether adding flourishes of colour to an already picturesque painting, or chiselling away at the marble to reveal the beauty within, 'The Noble Art of Self Destruction' - the final act in a trilogy of records encompassing the first chapter of Holding Absence's career - speaks to how we are each an unfinished work of art with new meanings and qualities waiting to be discovered.
